Optional ACT Assessment

3. Take the test. The test is best taken in one, one hour session.
DO NOT CLOSE OUT BEFORE FINISHING THE TEST. If you need to take the test in multiple sessions, keep the tab open and continue later, do not close out.
4. When you finish, you have the option to create an account, you do not have to create an account, however this is a super cool tool to help you practice for ACT, I would encourage you to use it. Once you have created an account, or continued without an account, your final score will show.
5. If you finish in class, call me over and show me your score. Otherwise, take a screen shot of your final score page, or take a picture with your cell phone. Send this image to me via email. This will be your final exam grade in Biology (out of 80 points).
6. If you are unhappy with your original score, you may re-take, but you will not re-take the exact same test, you can take either of these tests.
